Motherwell v Ross County

Ok probably the funniest thing I read today.  Man U supporters want them to sign TJ

[Orinoco]

TJ must be worth £5m plus sell on fee. Hibs want £6.5 for Bowie. Scottish club prices. If a epl team come in then double price.

I see we did pass the 5,000 mark for crowd.

5,547 the official attendance and I think they said 147 away fans.

Cup tie against a team who offered feck all, Connoly had 1 save to make near the end, apart from that they were never a threat. 

1st half team selection was dreadful, too many changes no Just in midfield and stamatelopolous is like starting with a man down. We created chances and a shout out to Laccoviti for a brilliant block to deny TJ the opener.

When Just and Fadinger came on we were a different team, and we got the goal we deserved.

So another win and clean sheet at fortress Fir park, into the next round draw so all in all a good day.

Every time I've seen us win the cup we start off with a 1 - 0 victory.

And also a team from sheep shagging country.

A win, another clean sheet, and that is the most disappointed I've felt leaving Fir Park this season.

Funny old game, as someone once said.

Still, we are in the hat for the next round so that is all that matters.

We played OK today but everything was a little bit flat.  

The team line up, the engagement of the crowd, the overall performance, there was definately a sense that we'd just breeze through this tie without trying.  

Maybe 'complacency' is too strong a word because we dominated the match but at the same time we weren't at our true levels and then when you take out the amount of quality we were missing today it was verging on being a bit laboured.

We'll have to go up a few levels if we want to win a trophy but we are through and that's the main thing.

That for me was pretty poor , a team who did just enough and no more to win . 
 

I appreciate it’s the cup against a stuffy team etc etc but that’s not how we’ve gone about our business this season . 
 

glad to be through , just not a great amount to shout about for those paying hard earned cash . 

Some folk are just never happy.

Aye, there's no such thing as a poor cup win.

Delighted to get into the next round 

Wasn't the greatest of games , but most pleasing thing of the day for me 8 home games in a row since we lost a goal

 👏

The crowds across all the games were surprisingly low for the Scottish cup. 1800 at Livingston and, surely a BBC misprint, 4373 at Tannadice, 4501 at Kilmarnock so makes ours look very respectable.
